Introduce Yourself is pretty good. Chuck Mosely's vocals definitely takes some getting used to (I hated it at first), but it's still a solid disc despite being really short.

Interesting. Still don't think the mixtapes work quite as well as the original content brought to us by Mega Ran though.

do
    if(KidA != bought)
    {
         buy("Kid A");
    }
    else if(InRainbows != bought)
    {
         buy("In Rainbows");
    }
    else if(TheBends != bought)
    {
         buy("The Bends");
    }
    else if(Amnesiac != bought)
    {
         buy("Amnesiac");
    }
    else
    {
         continueBuying = false;
    }
while(continueBuying);

You're welcome.

I do enjoy Mega Ran's stuff, it's really clever. But I think the novelty of hearing rappers over video game beats (and TV show themes) will never get old for me. I heard Gutsman (1,2 Step) over a Botchamania video and laughed until I was in tears.

I ordered a few Sonic soundtracks recently because I finally found somewhere where they were cheap.

A mixed bag, I'd say. I am a big fan of Kalnoky/Streetlight's tone and lyrics in general, so I was apprehensive about an all-cover album. Ultimately, my fondness for the band combined with my anticipation for particular tracks led me to be quite excited for the release.

The greats:

-Birds Just Fly Away (took me a few times to appreciate, but I'm a big fan)
-Hell 
-Just (a spectacular cover of what is definitely my favourite Radiohead song)
-They Provide the Paint... (still as meaningful and incredible now as it was when I first heard it)
-Such Great Heights (Streetlight covering The Postal Service was an almost surreal moment for me, given how much time I have spent listening to both bands. Quite pleased with the collision of worlds, though)


I am largely indifferent to the rest of the tracks. Cover albums are definitely a crapshoot in general, and I was a little bummed out that the album didn't immediately/consistently engage me like previous records.

Good taste in music, bad taste in video games.

@Sonic, I'm listening to Album of the Year right now. It started out kinda bland (tracks 1, 3, and 4) but after the first four songs it got a lot better. I figure those three tracks will grow on me. It's overall pretty similar to King For a Day... Fool for a Lifetime.

This album is so fresh. (So clean. [So fresh and so clean, clean])

But no, seriously, it's really very good.



I love Sufjan Stevens.

Love love love.

Agreed. I just got it a few days ago.

Also, this.
